Air pollution, odor detection gas sensor TGS2603
It is a gas sensor with high sensitivity to amine-based and sulfur-based foul-smelling gases.
The gas sensor consists of a metal oxide semiconductor formed on an alumina substrate along with an integrated heater. When detectable gases are present, the conductivity of the sensor increases as the concentration of that gas in the air rises. Using a simple electrical circuit, this change in conductivity can be converted into an output signal corresponding to the gas concentration. The TGS2603 has high sensitivity to unpleasant substances such as amines and sulfur compounds, as well as food odors (like those from blue fish). By using relative value detection (which detects air pollution based on changes in the sensor's resistance from a baseline of clean air), it achieves control that is closer to human perception. ◆ For more details, please contact Figaro Engineering directly.
